REUNIFYING CHILDREN AND ADULTS AFTER AN EMERGENCY
CRISIS

SHIP’S
AHOY CHILDREN’S ACADEMY

If there
is sufficient warning and it is safe to do so, childcare programs should strive to reunite children with their parents or
guardians before the event occurs.

Ship’s Ahoy will close
48 hours upon notice of any natural or man made disaster.

If an
emergency response is required the program should:

Place child's name and parents' name on sticky and place on the child.

Assign an individual (each child's teacher and asst. teacher) to be responsible for each child's
safety during the event.

Keep parents informed when children are evacuated from the facility to a nearby
or distant location.

-Ensure there are multiple phone numbers for family members including home, cell,
and work phone numbers for both parents and guardians and other to whom the child can be released.

-Ensure
parents and guardians have designated in writing the relatives or friends to which children can be released after a disaster,
including one or more individuals outside the area.

-Inform parents in advance where the children will be taken if an evacuation is
required.

-Ensure they have the phone number of a family member or trusted friend out of the area such as a grandparent
or other relative who can be contacted to locate the parents.

-Establish an 800(toll-free)
or other emergency number for the program outside the area than parents can contact to learn where their child or children
have been relocated.

-Take and maintain a current digital photo of each child enrolled in the program
that can be used if it is necessary to post the child’s photo to aid in reunification; with the parents’ permission
email a copy of the photo files to a location outside the area for use in reuniting children with their parents during a disaster.

-Become
familiar with National Emergency Family Registry and Locator System(NEFRLS) and the National Emergency Child Locator Center
and the American Red Cross systems which have been developed to help reunite families who are separated during a disaster.
